contemplative Sphinx, or garden-girdled Babylon" The Call of Cthulhu

New Year; New Eldritch Tomes

Okay, we start with something that is not a tome. Helen spotted these Innsmouth themed beer cans by a Calgary Brewer and well, we could not resist. They seem to have a SF theme for a number of their beers. When we tried to pay the till crashed, a sign perhaps? I have to say we found a mango-passionfruit sour as horrific as anything HPL wrote.

                             




I have long coveted a Panther paperback with a mythos inspired Bruce Pennington cover. This is a great one.


I found this in my favourite used bookstore. Helen and I love Gorey. I recently read Born to Be Posthumous: The Eccentric Life and Mysterious Genius of Edward Gorey by Mark Dery and really enjoyed it.  Gorey and Frank Belknap Long. Wow, I was so happy to see this.
